MY LOVELY FRIEND

The Hawk Deck 11:30am

I Saw A Star Of Blue

within My Field Of Red

It came behind a thought

as I languished in My Bed

It struck Me of A Friend

so very dear to Me:

She is starkly beautiful

and lives in misery

STAR SET

The Tomato-coloured Couch 8:32pm

I See A Peach-coloured Star

lowering Itself

beneath the wires

sinking into the fog

of the shoreline

It Is My Home Star

“Scary Shit”

The Tomato-coloured Couch 7:58pm

I Saw A Star Of Blue

surrounded by My Silver

It struck My View

as My Husband said

“Scary Shit — ” in front

of His Computer

PRIVATE SIGN

The Tomato-coloured Couch 4:40pm

I saw A Silver Star

in My Sea of Red

It told Me of My Thought

That Moment in My Head

PRIVATE PRAISE

The Hawk Queen Bed 2:53pm

I saw A Silver Star

glinting in My Yard

It told Me I’ve done well

not telling will be hard

WITH EYES

VIRAL PNEUMONIA

The Hawk Deck 1:41pm

I have An Inclusion

in My Left Lung

It has Me grounded

but not kept Me

from sculpting Hunter’s

Silver Head

& I am proud

IT GOT ME

The Hawk Queen Bed 7:05pm

Two Nights ago I stupidly

laid My Back against

a cold red deck chair

& thought:  “This could

give Me pneumonia”

There I sat

as I felt the cold seep

into My Left Lung
